Am I the only naive one???

So, today I was out buying dog food for my Bentley. As I was going through the store, I came across some interesting looking treats called Bully Sticks. I don't like Bentley to have rawhides, as he gets really messy, and I don't like how he can take a huge piece into his mouth...concerned about him choking on it. So, these bully sticks looked pretty harmless. Quite expensive, so I figured they would last for a while.

Took it home, and he has been chewing on it for the past 2 hours! He loves it. Anyway, I figured I would look up Bully Stick on the internet....just to see what they are made of.

8O :oops: 8O :oops: interesting to see they are actually bull penises that are stretched out! Ha! I had to laugh out loud. Now I am having a hard time watching him chew on it! But, he certainly loves it!

Am I the only one that had no clue?

Well, I actually knew what they were before I started getting them thanks to fellow agility folks, but I don't think it's common knowledge. In fact, I had to stop at a (better) grocery store on my way home from an agility trial today and thought I'd get the girls a little something, was hoping they'd have bullies, but nope, so opted for pigs ears. Then it dawned on me that perhaps they didn't want to carry anything they would have a hard time explaining to the general public... 8O

Aren't they great? I never get two hours out of them, 20 minutes, maybe, but they are HAPPY 20 minutes...;-)

Nah...to them it's all protein, fat etc...they don't care what part of a critter's body their next snack comes from :roll: :lol: :lol:

Couldn't have said that better myself.
I love to gift Charm with these too. I found that the braided ones are even better for longevity. They are probably very salty from the curing. Charm drinks and drinks after her bully snack.
